parents just got back and said it was amazing. wug wcoop plans? Deadman said he's going hard.

Pardon my ignorance, but what does "wug" mean?

What you got, as in what would you do here, as in what are your wcoop plans.

Down with the kids.



That would be WYG, surely?

Don't answer, I give up met.

I get what WUG means but "wug wcoop plans?" makes zero sense whatsoever. Surely the whole idea of WUG is to save yourself the heartache of having to type out "Do you have any wcoop plans?".

"Any wcoop plans?" or even just "Wcoop plans?" would be fine and mean the same or less key strokes.

Ridic!!



No wonder pleno doesn't feel he fits in!

He's from a part of the country that barely speaks English - he needs all of the help that he can get. (Although it is a bit demeaning being given grammar lessons by an Electrician, and a former Road-Mender).

WTF!!!!

Tikay launched a similar tirade on me over my use of "prolly" and "speshly" but I stuck to my guns.

Just adding to the natwest thing :

Have had 2 natwest business accounts for 8 years ( business established 15 years..never had an overdraft or borrowed a bean ) the accounts are a partnership..am splitting the company into two with the new one being limited myseld as sole MD..

Took 2 months..yes 2 months to get an appointment..'yes we will get the manager to call you back'..finally went to see the nat west bank manager..not at my branch either..had to go to a branch in east london ??.. filled in all the forms ..

er we might have a problem..

really ?..

yes i have to refer the opening of the account to head office and our risk assessment team

i only want to open an account for the new registered company .. we don't want to borrow any money..we have been with you for 8 years.. as you can see there is a large amount ( thin ) in the accounts at the moment..we have never asked for an overdraft ( actually thats a lie we asked for a 10 grand facility once they asked us to put up a £500,00 house as security ) or borrowed any money.. why does it have to go to risk assesment?

They dont tell me that.. we will get back to you within 5 working days

That was 17 days ago...

To say im confused is an understatement... Nat West customer service absolutely stinks

Natwest are the worst

All of our work banking had been with Natwest for 8 years, unlike Sicilian we had a fair sized overdraft and had used the RBS invoice financing product for a number of years so they made a fair chunk from us.

So in 2013 when we wanted to move some shares around I spoke to our relationship manager at Natwest and a contact I had at HSBC on the same day.

HSBC had an agreement in principal in place for a mixture of facilities providing a seven figure sum before our Natwest relationship manager had even bothered to visit!

They are a disgrace.

Aren't Natwest selling off their business banking? Or they are in the process of it? I was with them a couple of years back and I'm sure it was mentioned back then.

Ul on nearly pure bubbling , how did you feel after Alex? I often feel a bit of disappointment but still it is a buzz. Part of the parcel, lets hope when you stone bubble its not for a big comp or you have a nice destination so you can shake it off easily.

Obviously it didnt take you long to get over it stunning pics of you and the GF, lucky bugger Smiley

I had natwest business banking and had a great relationship with my manager,  then I sold one of my businesses so turnover dropped below 250k which now classifies me as a "micro" and my manager only deals with "small to medium" businesses so he was no longer able to deal with me and as a result it takes 4 weeks to get anything done.

Really really don't give a fuck!

Mines well in excess of £250K ( cough thin ) and they still don't give a fuck.. in fact when i went to see them i thought the whole place was run pretty unprofessionally... aside from the fact he didn't know his arse from his elbow

Got so much to catch up on it's gonna run away from me.

Some brief cliffs:

-Dubrovnik - top 3 holiday of my life, one of the most beautiful places in the world.
-Bobby's graduation - a very proud family occasion.
-Biggest winning cash session of the year, directly followed by...
-Biggest losing cash session EVER!

Lots of photos and more details to come asap.

However, I think there's more to come though with a big cash night tomorrow and a big sunday online the day after. PUMPED.
